 In response to a senseless question about
the idiotic assumption al-Qaeda has fantastical suitcase nukes (no
such beast exists) and hired evil Chechens to smuggle them across our porous
border, House Representative from Colorado, Tom
Tancredo, says the United States should nuke Mecca and Medina, the holiest
of holy Muslim cities. Since no suitcase nukes will be found—short of
fake ones discovered to add fire to the blazing propaganda pyre—Mecca
will not be nuked, thankfully. But Tancredo’s knee-jerk comment on AM
540 WFLA reveals something disturbing, although not particularly surprising:
more than a few Congress critters are stark raving warmongers who don’t
think twice about the fact a half million or so people live in Mecca, most having
absolutely nothing to do with al-Qaeda. I’m not sure Tancredo said Mecca
should be bombed during the hajj (pilgrimage) when an estimated 1,000,000 people
trek to the birthplace of Muhammad, but considering his mindset this is probably
not out of the question since for neocons and their demented fellow travelers
in Congress a dead Muslim is a good Muslim. Tancredo also does not bother to
explain how nuking Mecca would be an appropriate response to al-Qaeda, a group
supposedly at odds with the Saudi government. No doubt Tancredo believes all
Muslims are identical and they want to nuke America and convert the remainder
to Islam. In fact, most Muslims simply want the United States to butt out of
their business.
